We had a great experience on this dolphin tour. The operators know where the dolphins are and make every effort to ensure you get to see at least one. We saw more than one on our tour including one who was "leading" a ship to dock. Wonderful tour!

So glad we came upon Captain Murphy’s Isla Tour! Reasonably priced at $10 per person. My 10 yr old loved the dolphins and Spoon Billed birds. My 13yr and us adults loved it as well. Patrick, the guide/Captain was very friendly, knowledgeable about the area (it is a 3rd generation family business), and entertaining. We went on the sunset trip. Weather was great and scenery was beautiful. Will definitely do again! 🐬

The captain and crew were nice and informative and we had a nice boat ride with lots of dolphins. Definitely recommend.
